International audience. Right ventricular failure (RVF) is the most important prognostic factor for morbidity and mortality in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) or pulmonary hypertension (PH) caused by left heart diseases. However, right ventricle (RV) remodeling is understudied and not targeted by specific therapies. This can be partly explained by the lack of basic knowledge of RV remodeling. Since the physiology and hemodynamic function of the RV differ from those of the left ventricle (LV), the mechanisms of LV dysfunction cannot be generalized to that of the RV, albeit a knowledge of these being helpful to understanding RV remodeling and dysfunction. Store-operated Ca 2+ entry (SOCE) has recently emerged to participate in the LV cardiomyocyte Ca 2+ homeostasis and as a critical player in Ca 2+ mishandling in a pathological context. In this paper, we highlight the current knowledge on the SOCE contribution to the LV and RV dysfunctions, as SOCE molecules are present in both compartments. he relative lack of studies on RV dysfunction indicates the necessity of further investigations, a significant challenge over the coming years.
